So Old Lady Zhao lived a very humble life in her parents' home. Whenever Old Lady Liu threw her chopsticks down, she would kneel down to talk.
Things are different now.
Old Mrs. Zhao asked calmly, "Mother, are you dissatisfied with the food? Well, I still have food here. The last time I came back, I didn't even have enough to drool."
"Are you done yet? It's been years, and you're still harping on this?"
Old Lady Liu said angrily.
Zhao Zhu wanted to get angry, but was stopped by Zhao Dazhu.
"Now that Grandma and the aunts have finished their meal, let's put it away."
As they said that, the two pillars started to clean up the dishes.
"Where are we staying?"
Seeing that Old Lady Zhao was completely refusing to cooperate, Old Lady Liu was furious and could only ask this question.
"Let's go to the backyard. The ground is already prepared. The conditions are simple. If you are not used to it, I will have someone harness an ox cart to take you back to Dong tomorrow."
"Miss us, no way."
Old Lady Liu spoke coldly, then turned and went back to her resting place.
The others disappeared in a flash.
"Mom, what should I do?"
Zhao Dazhu was in a dilemma. He couldn't just drive him out.
Old Mrs. Zhao was also angry. She was the one who suffered the most in the Liu family and had never received any care. Now that she had finally become rich, they were still trying to plot against her.
They are all so heartless.
"Serve them the brown rice porridge. Don't bring up the pork head or anything like that, even if you're just throwing it away to feed the dogs."
"Then we..."
Old Lady Zhao said, "Ask Mrs. Chen next door to help make some pancakes. We'll pay you, and when you're hungry, you can go eat some pancakes next door."
"How about you, mother?"
"I was hungry. Only when I was hungry could my mind be clear," and I could never forget what happened back then.
…
Backyard.
Although it was a large brick and tile house, it only had windows and was not decorated inside. It was paved with straw, but the women of the Liu family still thought the house was good.
"It would be nice if I could live here forever," Zhang murmured.
Old Mrs. Liu was very angry and didn't want to talk.
Gao said, "Mother, didn't you say that my eldest sister always listens to you and agrees to whatever you say? Why isn't she like this now that she's here?"
"God knows what's wrong with her," Old Lady Liu said stubbornly, but she knew in her heart that she must be holding a grudge against her because she didn't lend her money or grain back then.
You said you almost starved to death, but you didn’t starve to death.
Gao was more pragmatic. She understood the situation and said, "Mother, I think things are not going to be easy. Why don't we stop thinking about it and just take care of the most important things before we go back."
"Are you in such a hurry to go back? My aunt's house has pig's head meat to eat, but we can't eat it in a whole year," Liu Shuanzi said from outside the window.
“That’s right…”
Gao rolled her eyes and said, "What a ghost."
"Mother, didn't we agree that since my eldest sister's family is rich, we only came to borrow ten taels of silver to give birth to a child and marry her off. The child will be born on the 15th of the lunar year... If you ask for too much, I'm afraid it will end in a quarrel..."
Nothing can be obtained.
But when Gao said this, she forgot that the eldest pillar of the Zhao family was already 31 years old, and the youngest pillar was already 17...
